Answer:

Explanation:

In The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the detective Sherlock Holmes and his friend Dr. John Watson try to determine the identity of a jewel thief. At the beginning of the story, Holmes tells Watson that at 4 o' clock on Christmas Day, a man named Peterson was heading home when he saw a tall man get into an altercation with a few hooligans. The man ends up dropping his hat and a dead goose. As they sit in front of Holmes' fire, the detective and the doctor discuss ways to find the hat's owner.

Sherlock Holmes deduces that the man is an intellectual because the hat size is large. ''A man with so large a brain must have something in it.'' He also determines that the man has recently lost a fortune because, while his hat was expensive one three years ago, it's not in the best condition now. Holmes deduces that the man has recently had his hair cut and that he uses lime cream in his hair. He also thinks that the man's wife no longer loves him because his hat has not been brushed in a long time.
